My heart goes out to my fellow scandinavian friends whom has been a victim of serious attack!
91 kids has been killed in a maniac shooting and the bomb at the ministrybuilding.
This is utterly insane and i sincerly hope that all familys and relatives to all poor children that has now past away get the help and support needed through this horendous trauma.

Take your point Mike, perhaps we leave this thread for condolences etc and talk about reasons or causes over at Politics.Those are my principles, and if you don't like them ... well, I have others.

The full horror of the attacks have now become apparent since late last night. It is a small closeknit country with just 5 million people, and this will have hit them hard. I also send my condolences to the people of Norway.Those are my principles, and if you don't like them ... well, I have others.

The kittyman, being unable to comprehend such senseless acts, just lowers his head to cry.
And send his prayers to those who's lives have been lost and shattered.A day without cats is like a day without sunshine.
I speak meow, do you?

I may not be the right one to do this..
but on behalf of the Norwegian people, I
want to express my deepest condolences to
the families directly affected of this -
and thats many. I also want to thank the
international community for their expression
of feeling with us - and our nation in this matter.

As a private person, I can not express what I feel.
To be witness to a happening like this is worse
than the most horrible nightmare. Norway is a very
peaceful country. And I will think its one of the
countries in the world where people move most freely,
and Feel most safe. This is how we know Norway.
When something like this happens, its easy to lose
the trust in what we belive in.. that freedom and
openness is possible, and can and should be the road
and the goal.
But we can never control everyones minds.. and freedom
is also to allow others to have their own ideas and meanings.
Though.. how anyone can become so evil, and do this sort
of thing - no matter where they are from - is not to grasp.

Today Norway is in shock, in grief, and each one of us
knows it could have happend to any of us. Norway is a small
country.. and to have lost so many of our teenages.. thats
something so horrible, we cant even start to take in the
meaning of it.

To have stated so.. I, and my family are all ok. But there
were people gathered from all over the country - and no names
are yet released.

All Norwegian is deeply moved today - Its the worst thing
that has happend to our country since the war.
Yet - as also the official Norway has stated:
This shall not change our views about having an open and free community.

I can't think of a more suitable or nicer person than yourself, to have written what you have said to us. Thank you for taking the time to let us know that you and your family are safe and well.

As you so rightly say, Norway is a small and peaceful country, and this is probably the worst thing that has happened since WWII, 70 years ago. But the Norwegians are a resilient people, and like then, they will now, take it in their stride, consolidate, and deal with it.

This shall not change our views about having an open and free community.

I would not have expected any less.

Take care Miss Moon, and be assured that the world is with you.Those are my principles, and if you don't like them ... well, I have others.

The person who did this awful deed of killing 92 people, is a far right Christian Fundamentalist who's against a lot of foreigners immigrating to Norway, Muslims especially I read(according to CNN), He's a very disturbed person to do this, the Norwegian Government will take care of Him. Some of this sounds disturbingly familiar...What is BSGRobotech-Saga-WikiSW-wiki
